    “unhappy with a provision of the canal's expropriation law that effectively compels residents along the route to sell their land at whatever price HKND offers.”

    Not market value? Someone is getting fucked here. Take away their livelihood and do not offer fair market value.........what reason do they have to be upset?

    Danny Ortega has a history of doing this. The house and land he “owns,”(including a baseball field,) was expropriated from its original owner. None of these people should be surprised, they elected him.

    When you ask for the devil, one can only expect evil. We had the chance to wax him back in the day.

    You mean 0.001% of the population Nicaragua will command everything, including the will of the other 99.999% of the population!
    Is that it? The democracy of the North-Americans is that?

    And these Nazis do not want to talk?

    Send them to the motherland .... USA!

    @ 5 Braileiro

    Novamente sua estupidez é infinita. Eu acho que você não entende o que você escreve.

    Do you recall having told us that only a few Nicaraguans were protesting?

    Brassiero just makes “knee-jerk” posts that contradict whatever we post- regardless of content, even if he contradicts himself from one post to the next.

    Would be a fantastic civil engineering project to benefit the whole World but the people who live there must benefit and be paid the right price for their land.

    This may seem like it works to a ignorant and blind south american, indoctrinated commie, but....to the rest of the world it looks tenuous at best. Seem to look that way to the peasants of Nicaragua as well.....the ones you will pay with the skin and livelyhood. No skin from the corrupt. Even if it does not pan out.........they will get their kickback. It is a shame back in the day they did not allow us to pull the trigger.

    So 200 million out of 50 billion needed. In other words..........here is .20 cents toward the $50 fee.

    Ortega............I hope the villagers burn you to the ground. Your years of raping them allows you to forget how tough they can be.....and you are older than your guerrilla days.

    As usual, you have misunderstood the whole thing, you illiterate turd !
    But answering your naive question, YES, the 0.001%, consisting of Daniel Ortega (one of Lula's buddies) and his cronies, will command everything......and what the hell has “the democracy of the North-Americans” got to do with this project ? it's the Chinese, whom you also love, who are helping screw the other 99,999%. You never get it, do you ignoraNus ??
